[ot][spam][crazy] why humanity is classist
hihihi this is a place for personal experiences regarding most of humanity living in severe oppression of itself -> sugar is hurting everyone -> coffee is hurting everyone -> _houses_ are hurting everyone -> vehicles are hurting everyone -> glass windows are hurting everyone -> _shoes_ are hurting everyone the list goes on
this viewpoint is often described as anarchoprimitivist obviously none of these things are directly harmful: what's harmful is assuming they are always good, making too many of them, and notably forcing people to have them who dislike them, until they get addicted to them
the end result of that behavior is that the set of things that humans consider "necessary to have" keeps on growing and displacing everyone else. it gets "humorous" when this includes slavery, because you can't actually give everyone slaves. some people are the slaves. unfortunately, given the way our economy is functioning at large scale, we basically have that situation now, just indirectly.
on the topic of slavery, there is a problem here that the middle class society i have been exposed to has skillfully included in its approach: slaves are forced to say they don't like good things, and do like bad things this makes the problem more complex when inside a civilized culture, as civilization hides slavery.
